On July 22, 2025, XREAL officially unveiled its new AR smart glasses – XREAL One Pro. On the day of launch, more than 26,000 people pre-ordered it on JD.com, which shows how much craze there is for this product among Chinese users.

Prior to this, XREAL also conducted a product tour named “Big Difference” in Shenzhen, Shanghai, and Beijing, where the company’s CEO Xu Chi and Product Director Liu Zongkai showed the innovative features of the product and interacted with the people.

Explosion in the Global Market – XREAL’s Domination

XREAL ranks #2 in 2025 AR/VR global market

According to the data of International Data Corporation (IDC), XREAL has maintained the No.1 position in the Global AR market for 3 years. In 2024, XREAL’s market share was as much as the combined market share of its top 3 competitors.

In the first quarter of 2025, XREAL was in second position in the AR/VR market after Meta, and even surpassed ByteDance. CEO Xu Chi says, “This new era is an opportunity for Chinese companies to set the definition of smart devices.”

The company received the 2025 Edison Gold Award for its self-developed X1 spatial computing chip, and also won the Red Dot Design Award and iF Design Award for design.

Major upgrades in display and performance

The biggest highlight of the XREAL One Pro is its 57-degree Field of View (FoV), which is the widest in the industry in the consumer AR glasses segment. This feature makes you feel like the screen is not in front of you, but in the entire space around you.

This advancement is credited to XREAL’s new X Prism Optical Engine, which uses PIR (Peripheral Infrared) full-reflection optics. This technology delivers sharper visuals and a wider view area, all in a lightweight and compact design.

The X1 chip in the device, specially designed for AR glasses, brings latency down to just 3 milliseconds – that means ultra-smooth performance without any lag.

Full device compatibility: Android, iPhone, Steam Deck & more

XREAL One Pro connects seamlessly with your Android phones, iPhones, Windows PCs, Macs, and even Steam Deck. You can do everything from work, meetings and entertainment together on one virtual screen.

This device has both 3DoF and 6DoF modes, making the interaction even more realistic and immersive.

Xu Chi says, “This is the most compatible and complete AR glasses experience so far.”

XREAL Eye Camera: A small add-on, but powerful

At the launch event, XREAL also introduced a small but powerful device – XREAL Eye, a 2 gram detachable camera. It has a Sony IMX681 12MP module, which makes the spatial tracking of smart glasses more accurate.

With this camera, you can take photos, record videos, detect gestures, and even do AI mapping. You can also do first-person live streaming by connecting it with the Beam Pro device.

Its price is 599 yuan (approx. ₹7,000), but in the early bird offer it is available for 499 yuan (₹5,900).

Project Aura: Global-level partnership with Google

Google and XREAL unveil Project Aura AR glasses

During the Google I/O Developer Conference in May 2025, Google announced that it is working with XREAL to create a futuristic AR device – Project Aura. This will be the first smart glasses that will run natively on the Android XR platform.

Project Aura will run on a split architecture – with an external computing unit (along with a Qualcomm chip), and the glasses will run on XREAL’s new X1S chip. These two chips together will create a powerful platform that will boost multitasking and AI features.

Xu Chi says, “The best form of software optimization is chip-level implementation, and the X1S chip is 25% faster than the X1.” It also has Android XR’s system-level algorithms integrated into the chip itself.

Project Aura will have a Field of View of 70-degree+, which has not yet been achieved in any mass production smart glasses.

An ecosystem is being created – ready for the future

XREAL is not just a product company, but is creating a spatial computing ecosystem. CEO Xu Chi said, “We want to unlock a trillion-dollar industry ecosystem from Pudong district (Shanghai).”

XREAL will showcase its new technologies at the 2025 World Artificial Intelligence Conference (WAIC) – including gaming zones, movie experiences, AI demos, and 6DoF experience zones.

Xu Chi says, “Smart glasses could become the next smartphone of the AI era. We want to create a product that will be remembered in history – just like Apple’s iPhone moment.”

Final Thoughts

With the launch of XREAL One Pro, and the announcement of future-ready products like Project Aura, XREAL has once again proved that China is among the global leaders in AR technology. This is the time when smart glasses are becoming mainstream, and XREAL is innovating at every step.

This is a golden opportunity for Indian tech lovers, developers, and content creators to enter the AR space – whether it is to develop apps or create futuristic content.
